Remind me, what’s Brassic about?

Co-created by star Joe Gilgun (This Is England) and BAFTA-winning writer Danny Brocklehurst (The Stranger), Brassic is about a group of mates in a fictional Lancashire town whose idea of a good time usually gets them into trouble. They’re total scamps, but their hearts are in the right place.
